Steel Plant in China. Approximate location 41.22537, 122.96959.

Steel PlantChinaCO₂ estimate (modelled)

Liaoyang Xinyi Special Steel Co Ltd is a steel plant in China. Steel plants burn coal in blast furnaces or use electric arcs to melt scrap; in both cases the molten metal must be kept above 1,500°C and transferred through extensive hot piping and vessels. It is operated by Liaoyang Xinyi Special Steel Co Ltd. It emits about 109,929 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE.

In context: how this facility compares

Subsector: iron-and-steel. As steel plant, it requires high process heat (typically 800–1500°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Steel plants burn coal in blast furnaces or use electric arcs to melt scrap; in both cases the molten metal must be kept above 1,500°C and transferred through extensive hot piping and vessels.

23khomes' electricity use for a year
110kacres of US forest absorbing CO₂ for a year

Equivalencies: US EPA Greenhouse Gas Equivalencies. Emissions: Climate TRACE.

Carbon cost and Scope 1 emissions

At its reported 110k t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), Liaoyang Xinyi Special Steel Co Ltd carries no domestic carbon price — and as a CBAM-covered product, its 110k t at the EU CBAM rate (€75/t) is €8.3M/yr of exposure on EU-bound exports. CBAM share rises from 2.5% (2026) to 100% by 2034. No domestic carbon price — but cement, steel, aluminium, fertilizer and hydrogen exported to the EU face CBAM at €75/t (rising to 100% by 2034).

In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1414 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.09× the loss at a 20 °C reference. Reference-surface calculation at a 150 °C surface from WorldClim climate normals (ASTM C680 / ISO 12241) — an indicative per-climate comparison, not a measurement of this site’s specific equipment.
